Process for the construction of a building

ABSTRACT

The invention is based on a procedure for the construction of a building with at least one wall, ceiling and/or roof element that has been manufactured utilizing a stackboard plate. “Stackboard plate” should be specifically understood as a plate that is manufactured from a multitude of solid wood boards, which have been individually placed upright, preferably, and solidly joined together either by continuous nailing or as an alternative or in addition be joined with wooden dowels. It is proposed that the stackboard plate, following the erection of a wall, ceiling and/or roof element, be plastered with a clay based plaster that can be applied by trowel or sprayed. If a plaster with hemp fibers is used, additional strength is achieved through the hemp fibers. The invention is especially based on the purpose of providing a process in which the construction of homes is possible in a simple and fast manner while using the least possible primary energy commonly available and, in times when energy resources are in short supply, materials (wood and especially clay) are continuously available.

STATUS OF TECHNOLOGY

It is a process known for the construction of a building by means ofwalls constructed with stackboard plates or stackboard plate elements,in which the walls are erected and then covered with sheets of drywall.

Furthermore, from 199 50 356 A1, a construction plate is known, as it isused in dry construction, which features a stackboard plate and a coversheet.

The invention is especially based on the purpose of providing a processin which the construction of homes, especially construction of higherdensity multi-story residences, is possible in a simple and fast mannerwhile using the least possible primary energy commonly available and, intimes when energy sources are in short supply, materials (wood andespecially clay) are continuously available. It is, according to theinvention, addressed through the characteristics as specified inRequirement 1. Additional arrangements of the invention are derived fromthe lateral and sub-requirements.

ADVANTAGES OF THE INVENTION

The invention proposes a method of constructing a building, especially aresidential building, with at least one wall, ceiling and/or roofelement that has been fabricated by use of a stackboard plate orstackboard plate element.

It is proposed that the stackboard plate, after erecting the wall,ceiling or roof elements, is covered with a plaster that can be appliedby trowel or sprayed. It must be understood that “erected” means thatthe wall, ceiling or roof element has already been moved into its finalposition in which it is to remain later within the home construction.Furthermore, a “stackboard plate” should be specifically understood as aplate that is manufactured from a multitude of solid wooden boards,which have been individually placed upright, preferably, and solidlyjoined together. The solid wood-boards are specifically joined togetherby continuous nailing. The nailing may for instance be accomplished bydriving a multitude of metal nails in a set pattern, making sure thatthe individual boards are always nailed on top of each other. As analternative or in addition could single boards at least be joined withwooden dowels.

The building can be constructed with little primary energy, specificallywhen clay plaster is used for plaster. A high availability andcompatibility in construction-biological regard, e.g. a permeability ofradiations and fields as well as a favorable diffusion ability can beachieved. Particularly by using a clay plaster disturbing fields can beshielded, a favorably sound-regulating characteristic, a favorablevapor/wind barrier, a highly effective fire protection and a protectionfrom wood pests can be achieved. The application of a clay plaster makesit possible to achieve a near ever-plastic universal protection. Severaladjoined wall, ceiling, and/or roof elements can be plastered simple andfast from the outside without joints and with a high degree of quality.Butt joints, as this is known from construction plates, can be avoided.

If a plaster with hemp fibers is used, additional strength is achievedthrough the hemp fibers.

It is furthermore proposed that the stackboard plate is moistened,specifically immediately prior to applying the plaster and preferablyplastered in its moistened state, whereby an especially advantageousadhesion of the plaster is achieved. The same applies when a stackboardplate with a rough sawn surface is used. As an alternative orspecifically in addition to a rough sawn surface can the stackboardplate also be made with a milled pattern to improve the adhesion of theplaster, where waffle mill patterns can be produced in a simple, fastand cost effective way with little energy use, are especially suitable.

In a further arrangement of the invention it is proposed that at leastone stackboard plate is used, which was exposed to humidity beforemanufacturing and/or sizing and erecting and after a connectingprocedure of individual boards for the desired increase of theirproportional humidity. A warping and/or in particular a change ofdimensions of the stackboard plate can be avoided by this initialelimination of the expansion process when plastering with a typicallymoist plaster. By exposure to moisture small gaps can be gained betweenthe individual boards that can later serve to compensate for lengthdifferences when plastering. The stackboard plate is less susceptible towater damage and, due to the gap, an improved adhesion of the plastercan be attained as well.

It is beneficial to use stackboard plates that have a moisture contentof between 20% and 40%, and it is especially advantageous at between 22%and 27%.

Stackboard plates that, after a connection procedure of individualboards, have been exposed to moisture in order to specifically increasetheir proportional moisture content are, as illustrated, especiallysuitable for the invention related procedure of constructing a buildingbut may also be utilized for other procedures in which stackboard plateswith likewise attributes are used beneficially as deemed practical bythe craftsman.

An especially cost effective wall, ceiling and/or roof element as wellas an improved plaster adhesion can be achieved when at least onestackboard plate is used that is made up of a minimum of 20%, or evenbetter a minimum of 50% of only partially edged boards. A “partiallyedged board” for this purpose is defined as a board that has one or moreunfinished edges.

Stackboard plates that are made up of a minimum of 20%, or even better aminimum of 50% of only partially edged boards are, as illustrated,especially suitable for the invention related procedure of constructinga building but may also be utilized for other procedures in whichstackboard plates with likewise attributes are used beneficially asdeemed practical by the craftsman.

REPORT OF ILLUSTRATIVE DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 shows a schematically illustrated residential building 10 with awall element 14, which has been constructed of stackboard plates 12,12′. Stackboard plates 12, 12′ as related to the invention are,following the erection of wall elements 14, plastered with a clayplaster that is applicable with trowel or sprayer from the inside andoutside, specifically in the illustrative description at hand withoutplaster carrier by manual plastering with a plastering tool 26 and aplaster machine not further detailed here (FIGS. 1 and 2). For theoutside a clay plaster 16 with hemp fibers 20 and for the inside a clayplaster 18 without hemp fibers 20 is used. It is basically possible touse the outside plaster as well as the inside plaster with or withouthemp fibers.

The erected stackboard plates 12, 12′ are moistened with Brush 24 priorto plastering.

Stackboard plates 12, 12′ featuring a rough sawn surface 28, 30 are usedfor the wall element 14, where the stackboard plates 12, 12′ on theirsurface 28, 30 were additionally finished with a milled pattern 22,specifically with a waffle mill pattern.

The stackboard plates 12, 12′ were, prior to being erected and followinga nail procedure with nails 32 for the adjoining of individual boards,exposed to moisture in order to increase their moisture content toapproximately 25%, or the initial elimination of the expansion processrespectively (FIG. 3). Only then follows the precise construction or anaccurate trimming of the stackboard plates 12, 12′ or elementsrespectively.

The stackboard plates 12, 12′ used are made up of approximately 80%partially edged boards, can therefore be produced exceptionally costeffective and offer a gap to which the clay plaster 16, 18 can clingwell (FIG. 2).
